During these holy days, let’s draw near the Crucified One. Let’s place ourselves before him, stripped, to take an honest look at ourselves, removing whatever is superfluous. Let’s look at him, wounded, and place our wounds in his. Let’s let Jesus regenerate hope in us. #HolyWeek

To love others is to invite story telling, to be curious about another’s life experience, to wonder and be challenged by their difference. Sometimes we are so caught up in the hustle to be loved we forget to love.

#MorningPrayer
Lord, give us
not just a belief
in the fact of your resurrection
but a trust in the reality of it,
a hope in the truth of it,
a joy in the meaning of it,
a life in the effect of it,
a role in the sharing of it,
a peace in the light of it
and your love in all of it.

We had a wonderful set of intercessions for April Fools' Day today at the abbey! (In some ways, it actually strikes me as one of the most sincere sets of intercessions we've ever had...) 1/7

Oh Lord our God, it feels as if we are on the ragged edge of something. Is it possible that we can utterly destroy civilization and our beautiful planet? Where are the voices and where is the will to lead us out of our increasing peril? Be our light in the darkness, O Lord.

I appreciated the compassionate and wise counsel of Bishop Bell and Bishop Crosby.
Faith voices were important in today’s #HamOnt E&CS meeting about HATS.hamiltonpoverty.ca. Bishop Susan Bell provided a strong show of support for the model and the site, calling it a compassionate alternative to keep homeless people safe and supported.

What the world needs are people who are completely alive with joy and love. Not the joy born of a naive wishful thinking, but a deep and abiding joy that comes from a sober look at the worst our world can be, and shouting from its depths God's victory of life and love in Jesus.

My fervent prayer as you begin #Advent is that even in the midst of the grief and weariness you are carrying, you will glimpse God's light urging you forward, reminding you that you are enough, held by a love that, though the world do its worst, simply cannot be broken

I hope when you look back on your life, you love the person you grew into. I hope you held onto your wonder and gentleness. I hope you encountered shocking kindness. I hope you were stunned by moments of sheer beauty.
